SUBSCRIPTION RECEIPTS

2.1 Creation and Issue of Subscription Receipts

(a)           An aggregate of up to 31,500,000 Subscription Receipts, on the terms and subject to the conditions herein provided, are hereby created and authorized for issue at a price of US$3.50 for each Subscription Receipt.

(b)           One Subscription Receipt shall be issued, in certificated or uncertificated form, without any further act or formality, on the Closing Date for each US$3.50 received by the Corporation as payment therefor and each such Subscription Receipt shall be a fully paid and non-assessable security of the Corporation.

(c)           The Subscription Agent acknowledges that the Offering may be completed in multiple tranches and the Subscription Receipts issued pursuant to this Agreement and under the Offering shall be treated as a single class of Subscription Receipts.

(d)           Each Subscription Receipt issued hereunder will entitle the holder thereof, upon the conversion thereof in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 hereof, and without payment of any additional consideration or further action, to be issued one Unit, with each Unit being comprised of one SR Share and one SR Warrant, at the Escrow Release Time, subject to adjustment as set out herein.

2.2 Payment Acknowledgement

The Subscription Receipt Agent will, by way of separate written receipt, acknowledge receipt of funds from the Corporation and/or Bennett Jones LLP, for the sale of Subscription Receipts under the Offering, and will confirm that such funds have been deposited in a segregated account, or as otherwise jointly directed by the Corporation in writing, and the Subscription Receipt Agent will retain such funds in accordance with the terms of this Agreement pending payment of such amount in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.3 Terms of Subscription Receipts

(a)           Purchase by the Corporation: Notwithstanding Section 3.1(b), the Corporation may from time to time purchase Subscription Receipts by private agreement or otherwise, and any such purchase may be made in such manner, from such persons, at such prices and on such terms as the Corporation in its sole discretion may determine in agreement with the applicable Subscription Receiptholder. Subscription Receipt Certificates representing Subscription Receipts purchased by the Corporation pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) shall be surrendered to the Subscription Receipt Agent for cancellation and shall be accompanied by a Written Direction of the Corporation to the Subscription Receipt Agent to cancel the Subscription Receipts represented thereby and shall not be reissued. For greater certainty, nothing in this Section 2.3(a) shall grant to the Corporation a unilateral right of redemption with respect to the Subscription Receipts.

(b)           Cancellation of Subscription Receipts: In the event that either (i) a Termination Notice is delivered prior to the Escrow Release Deadline, or (ii) the Escrow Release Notice is not delivered to the Subscription Receipt Agent at or prior to the Escrow Release Deadline, all of the Subscription Receipts shall, without any action on the part of the holders thereof (including the surrender of Subscription Receipt Certificates), be terminated and cancelled by the Subscription Receipt Agent as of the Termination Time and holders of Subscription Receipts shall thereafter have no rights thereunder except to receive, and the Subscription Receipt Agent shall pay to such holders from the Escrowed Funds, an amount equal to the aggregate Purchase Price of the Subscription Receipts then held, plus a pro rata share of Subscription Receipt Interest earned on the Escrowed Proceeds (less any withholding tax required to be withheld in respect thereof). Such amount (less any withholding tax required to be withheld in respect thereof) shall be returned to each holder of a Subscription Receipt by the Subscription Receipt Agent in accordance with Section 6.3(b) hereof. The Corporation shall be liable for, and shall forthwith after the Termination Date deposit funds with the Subscription Receipt Agent, in an amount equal to any shortfall between the amounts owing to Subscription Receiptholders under this Section 2.3(b) and the amount of the Escrowed Funds. The Subscription Receipt Agent shall not be responsible for any shortfall owing to the Subscription Receiptholders.

DELIVERY OF THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT CONSTITUTE "GOOD DELIVERY" IN SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS ON STOCK EXCHANGES IN CANADA."

provided, that if any Subscription Receipts are being sold outside the United States in accordance with Rule 904 of Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act, the legend may be removed by providing a declaration to the registrar and transfer agent in the form attached as Schedule "C" hereto (or such other form as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time), together with any other evidence, which may include an opinion of counsel of recognized standing reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, to the effect that the legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the U.S. Securities Act; provided further, that if any of the Subscription Receipts are being sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities Act, if available, the legend may be removed by delivering to the Corporation and the Corporation's transfer agent an opinion of counsel of recognized standing in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation, to the effect that the legend is no longer required under applicable requirements of the U.S. Securities Act.

All such Subscription Receipts issued in exchange for CDS Subscription Receipts or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depository for such CDS Subscription Receipts shall direct and shall be entitled to the same benefits and subject to the same terms and conditions (except insofar as they relate specifically to CDS Subscription Receipts) as the CDS Subscription Receipts or portion thereof surrendered upon such exchange.

(d)           Every Subscription Receipt Authenticated upon registration or transfer of CDS Subscription Receipts, or in exchange for or in lieu of a CDS Subscription Receipt or any portion thereof, whether pursuant to this Section 2.5, or otherwise, shall be Authenticated in the form of, and shall be, a CDS Subscription Receipt, unless such Subscription Receipt is registered in the name of a person other than the Depository for such CDS Subscription Receipt or a nominee thereof.

(e)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, subject to applicable law, the CDS Subscription Receipts will be issued as Uncertificated Subscription Receipts, unless otherwise requested in writing by the Depository or the Corporation.

The Authentication by the Subscription Receipt Agent on a Subscription Receipt Certificate will be conclusive evidence as against the Corporation that such Subscription Receipt Certificate has been issued hereunder and that the holder thereof is entitled to the benefits hereof. Any Subscription Receipt Certificate validly issued in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in effect at the time of issue of such Subscription Receipt Certificate shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement and applicable law, validly entitle the holder to acquire SR Shares and SR Warrants, notwithstanding that the form of such Subscription Receipt Certificate may not be in the form then required by this Agreement.

Such Authentication shall be conclusive evidence that such Uncertificated Subscription Receipts have been duly issued hereunder and that the holder or holders are entitled to the benefits of this Agreement. The register shall be final and conclusive evidence as to all matters relating to Uncertificated Subscription Receipts with respect to which this Agreement requires the Subscription Receipt Agent to maintain records or accounts. In case of differences between the register at any time and any other time, the register at the later time shall be controlling, absent manifest error, and any Uncertificated Subscription Receipts recorded therein shall be binding on the Corporation.

(c)           Validity of Subscription Receipts: No Subscription Receipt shall (a) be considered issued, valid or obligatory; nor (b) entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Agreement, until it has been Authenticated by the Subscription Receipt Agent. Authentication by the Subscription Receipt Agent, including by way of entry on the register, shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Subscription Receipt Agent as to the validity of this Agreement or of such Certificated Subscription Receipt or Uncertificated Subscription Receipts (except the due Authentication thereof) or as to the performance by the Corporation of its obligations under this Agreement and the Subscription Receipt Agent shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of the Subscription Receipts or any of them or of the consideration thereof. Authentication by the Subscription Receipt Agent shall be conclusive evidence as against the Corporation that the Subscription Receipts so Authenticated have been duly issued hereunder and that the holder thereof is entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

No Certificated Subscription Receipt shall (a) be considered issued or obligatory; nor (b) entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Agreement, until it has been Authenticated by signature by or on behalf of the Subscription Receipt Agent substantially in the form of the certificate set out in Schedule "A" hereto. Such Authentication on any such Certificated Subscription Receipt shall be conclusive evidence that such Certificated Subscription Receipt is duly Authenticated and is a valid and binding obligation of the Corporation and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.


- 16 -

No Uncertificated Subscription Receipt shall (a) be considered issued or obligatory; nor (b) entitle the holder thereof to the benefits of this Agreement, until it has been Authenticated by entry on the register of the particulars of the Uncertificated Subscription Receipt. Such entry on the register of the particulars of an Uncertificated Subscription Receipt shall be conclusive evidence that such Uncertificated Subscription Receipt is duly Authenticated and is a valid and binding obligation of the Corporation and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

(d)           Authentication No Representation: The Authentication by the Subscription Receipt Agent of any Subscription Receipts whether by way of entry on the register or otherwise shall not be construed as a representation or warranty by the Subscription Receipt Agent as to the validity of this Agreement or such Subscription Receipts (except the due Authentication thereof) or as to the performance by the Corporation of its obligations under this Agreement and the Subscription Receipt Agent shall in no respect be liable or answerable for the use made of the Subscription Receipts or any of them or the proceeds thereof.

2.8 Subscription Receipts to Rank Pari Passu

All Subscription Receipts will rank pari passu with all other Subscription Receipts, whatever may be the actual dates of their issue.

2.9 Issue in Substitution for Lost Certificates, Etc.

(a)           Substitution: If any Subscription Receipt Certificate becomes mutilated or is lost, destroyed or stolen, the Corporation, subject to applicable law and to Section 2.9(b) hereof, will issue, and thereupon the Subscription Receipt Agent will certify and deliver, a new Subscription Receipt Certificate of like tenor and bearing the same legends as the one mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen in exchange for and in place of and on surrender and cancellation of such mutilated Subscription Receipt Certificate or in lieu of and in substitution for such lost, destroyed or stolen certificate.

- 17 -


(iii)           pay the reasonable charges of the Corporation and the Subscription Receipt Agent in connection therewith.

2.10 Subscription Receiptholder not a Shareholder

Nothing in this Agreement or in the holding of a Subscription Receipt or otherwise shall be construed as conferring on any Subscription Receiptholder any right or interest whatsoever as a shareholder of the Corporation, including, but not limited to, any right to vote at, to receive notice of or to attend any meeting of shareholders or any other proceeding of the Corporation or any right to receive any dividend or other distribution.

2.11 U.S. Securities Matters

(a) The Subscription Receipts, Units, SR Shares, SR Warrants and SR Warrant Shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or under any United States state securities laws, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise disposed of in the United States, or to, or for the account or benefit of, a person in the United States or a U.S. Person unless an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws is available. Subscription Receipts, Units, SR Shares, SR Warrants and SR Warrant Shares issued to U.S. Subscription Receiptholders are "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act. Subscription Receipts issued to, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. Subscription Receiptholder, other than an Original QIB Purchaser (and any certificates or DRS Advices issued in replacement thereof or in substitution therefor), must be issued only in certificated or DRS form. Any certificates or DRS Advices representing Subscription Receipts, SR Shares and SR Warrant Shares issued to a U.S. Subscription Receiptholder, other than an Original QIB Purchaser, and any certificates or DRS Advices issued in replacement thereof or in substitution therefor, shall, until such time as the same is no longer required under applicable requirements of the U.S. Securities Act or applicable state securities laws, bear a legend in substantially the following form or such variations thereof as the Corporation may prescribe from time to time:

"THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY [FOR SUBSCRIPTION RECEIPTS ADD: AND THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON CONVERSION HEREOF] HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

Each SR Warrant issued in the United States (except those issued to a Qualified Institutional Buyer) or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Accredited Investors, as well as all certificates issued in exchange therefor or in substitution thereof, shall bear the following legend:

"THIS WARRANT AND THE SECURITIES DELIVERABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "U.S. SECURITIES ACT"), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING SUCH SECURITIES, AGREES FOR THE BENEFIT OF OSISKO DEVELOPMENT CORP. (THE "CORPORATION") THAT THIS WARRANT MAY NOT BE EXERCISED IN THE UNITED STATES UNLESS THIS WARRANT AND SHARES ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THIS WARRANT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LEGISLATION OF ANY SUCH STATE OR AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS IS AVAILABLE. THIS WARRANT MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY (A) TO THE CORPORATION, (B) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES, IN ACCORDANCE WITH RULE 904 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, (C) PURSUANT TO THE EXEMPTIONS FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT PROVIDED BY (1) RULE 144, IF AVAILABLE, OR (2) RULE 144A THEREUNDER, IF AVAILABLE, AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (D) IN ANOTHER TRANSACTION THAT DOES NOT REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PROVIDED THAT IN THE CASE OF TRANSFERS PURSUANT TO (C)(1) OR (D) ABOVE, A LEGAL OPINION IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE CORPORATION MUST FIRST BE PROVIDED TO THE CORPORATION'S TRANSFER AGENT.

(b)           Each Subscription Receipt issued to an Original QIB Purchaser who has purchased Subscription Receipts in the Offering, and the SR Shares and SR Warrants issued upon conversion of such Subscription Receipts on the Release Date, will not bear a U.S. restrictive legend required under Section 2.11(a) or be identified by a restricted CUSIP number attached to such Subscription Receipt or any SR Shares and SR Warrants pursuant to the acknowledgments, representations and "restricted security agreements" of each Original QIB Purchaser in the U.S. QIB Letter executed in connection with the Original QIB Purchaser's subscription agreement.

claim against the Escrowed Funds held by the Subscription Receipt Agent and against the Corporation, in the amount equal to US$3.50 for each Subscription Receipt held by such holder, which claim shall subsist until such time as the SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon the conversion of such Subscription Receipts are issued or such amount is paid in full. In the event that, prior to the earlier of the Termination Date and the first Business Day following the Escrow Release Date, the Corporation (i) makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or any proceeding is instituted by the Corporation seeking relief on behalf thereof as a debtor, or to adjudicate the Corporation a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding-up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of the Corporation or the debts of the Corporation under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking appointment of a receiver, receiver and manager, trustee, custodian or similar official for the Corporation or any substantial part of the property and assets of the Corporation or the Corporation takes any corporate action to authorize any of the actions set forth above, or (ii) the Corporation shall be declared bankrupt, or a receiver, receiver and manager, trustee, custodian or similar official is appointed for the Corporation or any substantial part of its property and assets, the Corporation or an encumbrancer shall legally take possession of any substantial part of the property or assets of the Corporation or a distress or execution or any similar process is levied or enforced against such property and assets and remains unsatisfied for such period as would permit such property or such part thereof to be sold thereunder, the right of each holder of Subscription Receipts to be issued the SR Shares and SR Warrants upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts of such holder will terminate and such holder will be entitled to assert a claim against the Escrowed Funds held by the Subscription Receipt Agent, and against the Corporation for any shortfall, in an amount equal to US$3.50 for each Subscription Receipt held by such holder plus their pro rata Subscription Receipt Interest on the Escrowed Proceeds less any withholding tax required to be withheld in respect thereof.

The Corporation (in this Section 6.5 referred to as a "representing party") hereby represents to the Subscription Receipt Agent that any account to be opened by, or interest to be held by, the Subscription Receipt Agent in connection with this Agreement, for or to the credit of such representing party, either (i) is not intended to be used by or on behalf of any third party; or (ii) is intended to be used by or on behalf of a third party, in which case such representing party hereby agrees to complete, execute and deliver forthwith to the Subscription Receipt Agent a declaration of third party interest in the Subscription Receipt Agent's prescribed form in accordance with the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act and the regulations thereto, or in such other form as may be satisfactory to it, as to the particulars of such third party.

ARTICLE 7

ADJUSTMENTS

7.1 Adjustment to Number of SR Warrant Shares and SR Warrant Exercise Price

Any adjustment to the number of SR Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the SR Warrants and the exercise price of the SR Warrants shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Warrant Indenture.

7.2 Adjustment of Number of SR Shares and SR Warrants

The Subscription Receipts shall be subject to adjustment from time to time in the following circumstances and manner:


- 33 -

(a)           Subject to Section 7.3, so long as any Subscription Receipts remain outstanding, the Corporation shall:

(i)           subdivide, redivide or change its outstanding Common Shares into a greater number of shares;
   
(ii)           reduce, combine or consolidate its outstanding Common Shares into a smaller number of shares; or
   
(iii)           issue Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares to the holders of all or substantially all of the outstanding Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or make a distribution to all or substantially all of the holders of Common Shares on its outstanding Common Shares payable in Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares;

then, in each such event, the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted immediately after the effective date of such subdivision, redivision, change, reduction, combination or consolidation, or the record date for such issue of Common Shares by way of a stock dividend or distribution, as the case may be, by multiplying the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts by a fraction:

(A)           the numerator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after such date; and
   
(B)           the denominator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding immediately prior to such date.

Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event referred to in this Section 7.2(a) shall occur. Any such issue or distribution of Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares shall be deemed to have been made on the record date for such issue or distribution for the purpose of calculating the number of outstanding Common Shares under Section 7.2(b) and Section 7.2(c). For avoidance of doubt, the number of Common Shares to be issued in connection with the conversion of Subscription Receipts upon following the completion of the Consolidation shall be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 to give effect to the Consolidation.

(b)           Subject to Section 7.3, so long as any Subscription Receipts remain outstanding, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the issuance of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares entitling them, for a period expiring not more than 45 days after such record date, to subscribe for or purchase Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) at a price per share (or having a conversion or exchange price per share) less than 95% of the Current Market Price on such record date, the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the number determined by multiplying the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts by a fraction:


- 34 -


(i)

          the numerator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase or into which the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered are convertible or exchangeable; and

   

(ii)

          the denominator of which shall be the total number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date plus a number of Common Shares equal to the number arrived at by dividing the aggregate price of the total number of additional Common Shares offered for subscription or purchase (or the aggregate conversion or exchange price of the convertible or exchangeable securities so offered) by such Current Market Price.

Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that any such rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to the expiration thereof, the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be readjusted to the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect based upon the number of Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) actually issued upon the exercise of such rights, options or warrants, as the case may be.

(c)           Subject to Section 7.3, so long as any Subscription Receipts remain outstanding, the Corporation shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all or substantially all the holders of its outstanding Common Shares of:

(i)           shares of the Corporation of any class other than Common Shares or other securities of the Corporation;
   
(ii)           rights, options or warrants to acquire Common Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares) or other securities of the Corporation;
   
(iii)           evidences of its indebtedness; or
   
(iv)           any property or other assets;

(excluding, in each case, any distribution referred to in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b)) then, in each such case, the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted immediately after such record date so that it shall equal the number determined by multiplying the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts by a fraction:


- 35 -


(i)           the numerator of which will be the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price on such record date; and
   
(ii)           the denominator of which will be:

(A)           the product of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such record date and the Current Market Price on such record date; less
   
(B)           the aggregate fair market value, as determined by the Directors, acting reasonably, whose determination, absent manifest error, will be conclusive, to the holders of Common Shares of such shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets so distributed.

Any Common Shares owned by or held for the account of the Corporation or any Subsidiary of the Corporation shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of any such computation. Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date is fixed. To the extent that such distribution is not so made, the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be readjusted to the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed or to the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts which would then be in effect based upon such shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets actually distributed, as the case may be.

(d)           Subject to Section 7.3, so long as any Subscription Receipts remain outstanding, there is a reclassification of the Common Shares or a capital reorganization of the Corporation (other than as described in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b) or Section 7.2(c)) or an amalgamation, arrangement or merger of the Corporation with or into any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of the property and assets of the Corporation as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to any other body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity, any Subscription Receiptholder whose Subscription Receipts have not been converted prior to the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, sale or conveyance shall, upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts, be entitled to receive and shall accept, in lieu of the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants to which the Subscription Receiptholder was prior thereto entitled upon conversion, the kind and number of shares or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the body corporate, trust, partnership or other entity resulting from such reclassification, capital reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement or merger or to which such sale or conveyance may be made, as the case may be, that such Subscription Receiptholder would have been entitled to receive on such reclassification, capital reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, sale or conveyance, if on the record date or the effective date thereof, as the case may be, the Subscription Receiptholder had been the registered holder of the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants to which immediately before the transaction or event he was entitled upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts. To give effect to or to evidence the provisions of this Section 7.2(d), the Corporation, its successor, or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity, as the case may be, shall, prior to or contemporaneously with any such reclassification, capital reorganization, amalgamation, arrangement, merger, sale or conveyance, enter into an agreement which shall provide, to the extent possible, for the application of the provisions set out in this Agreement with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of the Subscription Receiptholder to the effect that the provisions set out in this Agreement shall thereafter correspondingly be made applicable, as nearly as may reasonably be possible, with respect to any shares, other securities or property to which a Subscription Receiptholder is entitled on the conversion of the Subscription Receipts thereafter. Any agreement entered into between the Corporation and the Subscription Receipt Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.2(d) shall be a supplemental agreement entered into pursuant to the provisions of Article 10. Any agreement entered into between the Corporation, any successor to the Corporation or such purchasing body corporate, partnership, trust or other entity and the Subscription Receipt Agent shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided in this Section 7.2 and which shall apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations, amalgamations, arrangements, mergers, sales or conveyances.


- 36 -

(e)           In any case in which this Section 7.2 shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date for an event referred to herein the Corporation may defer, until the occurrence of such event, issuing to the holder of any Subscription Receipt in respect of which the Subscription Receipts are converted after such event, the additional SR Shares, SR Warrants or other securities or property issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event before giving effect to such adjustment; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such Subscription Receiptholder, as soon as reasonably practicable after such record date, an appropriate instrument evidencing such Subscription Receiptholder's right to receive such additional SR Shares, SR Warrants or other securities or property upon the occurrence of the event requiring such adjustment and the right to receive any distributions made on such additional SR Shares, SR Warrants or other securities or property declared in favour of holders of record of SR Shares, SR Warrants or securities or property on and after the relevant date of conversion, or such later date as such Subscription Receiptholder would, but for the provisions of this Section 7.2(e), have become the holder of record of such additional SR Shares, SR Warrants or other securities or property pursuant to this Section 7.2, provided that if the other securities are not securities of the Corporation, the Corporation will not be liable to any holder should the issuer thereof not pay any distribution declared thereon.

(f)           In any case in which Section 7.2(c) requires that an adjustment be made to the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, no such adjustment shall be made if the Subscription Receipt Agent receives the shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property referred to in Section 7.2(c), in such kind and number as Subscription Receiptholders would have received if they had been holders of SR Shares on the applicable record date or effective date by virtue of their right to be issued SR Shares and SR Warrants upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts. Any such shares, other securities, rights, options, warrants, evidences of indebtedness or other assets or property so received by the Subscription Receipt Agent shall be held and distributed by the Subscription Receipt Agent pursuant hereto.

(g)           The adjustments provided for in this Section 7.2 are cumulative and shall be computed to the nearest two decimal places and will apply to successive subdivisions, redivisions, reductions, combinations, consolidations, distributions, issues or other events resulting in any adjustment under the provisions of this Section 7.2, provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.2, no adjustment of the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent in the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason of this 7.2(g) are not required to be made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.


- 37 -

(h)           If the Corporation sets a record date to determine the holders of Common Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive any dividend or distribution or sets a record date to take any other action and, thereafter and before the distribution to such shareholders of any such dividend or distribution or the taking of any other action, legally abandons its plan to pay or deliver such dividend or distribution or take such other action, then no adjustment shall be made to the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts.

(i)           After any adjustment pursuant to this Section 7.2, the terms "Common Shares" and "Warrants" where used in this Agreement shall be interpreted to mean securities of any class or classes which as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 7.2, the Subscription Receiptholder is entitled to receive upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, and the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants to be issued upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be interpreted to mean the number of SR Shares, SR Warrants or other property or securities a Subscription Receiptholder is entitled to receive, as a result of such adjustment and all prior adjustments pursuant to this Section 7.2, upon the full conversion of the Subscription Receipts, as the case may be.

7.3 No Adjustment for Stock Options etc.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 7, no adjustment shall be made pursuant to this Agreement in respect of the issue of SR Shares or SR Warrants pursuant to any stock option, stock purchase, or other equity incentive plan in force from time to time for officers, Directors or employees of the Corporation or pursuant to any stock option granted or other convertible security issued by the Corporation prior to the date of this Agreement.

7.4 Determination by Corporation's Auditors

In the event of any question arising with respect to the adjustments provided for in this Article 7, such question shall, absent manifest error, be conclusively determined by the Corporation's auditors, who shall have access to all necessary records of the Corporation, and such determination shall, absent manifest error, be binding upon the Corporation, the Subscription Receipt Agent, all Subscription Receiptholders and all other persons interested therein.

7.5 Proceedings Prior to Any Action Requiring Adjustment

As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment in the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts, the Corporation shall take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of Counsel to the Corporation (acting reasonably), be necessary to ensure that the Corporation has sufficient authorized capital and that the Corporation may validly and legally issue, as fully paid and non-assessable securities, all of the securities which the holders of such Subscription Receipts are entitled to receive on the conversion of the Subscription Receipts, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.


- 38 -

7.6 Action Requiring Adjustment

In case the Corporation, after the date hereof, shall take any action affecting the SR Shares, other than the actions described in this Article 7, which, in the opinion of the Directors would materially adversely affect the rights of the Subscription Receiptholders, then the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants which are to be received upon the conversion of the Subscription Receipts shall be adjusted in such manner, if any, and at such time as the Directors may, in their discretion, reasonably determine to be equitable to the Subscription Receiptholders in such circumstances.

7.7 Certificate of Adjustment

The Corporation shall, immediately after the occurrence of any event which requires an adjustment or readjustment as provided in this Article 7, deliver a Certificate of the Corporation to the Subscription Receipt Agent specifying the nature of the event requiring such adjustment or readjustment and the amount of the adjustment or readjustment necessitated thereby and setting out in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based, which certificate shall be supported by a certificate of the Corporation's auditors verifying such calculation.

7.8 Notice of Special Matters

The Corporation covenants with the Subscription Receipt Agent that, so long as any Subscription Receipt remains outstanding, it will give notice to the Subscription Receipt Agent and the Subscription Receiptholders of its intention to fix the record date for any event referred to in Section 7.2(a), Section 7.2(b), Section 7.2(c) and Section 7.2(d) which may give rise to an adjustment in the number of SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts. Such notice shall specify the particulars of such event and the record date for such event, provided that the Corporation shall only be required to specify in the notice such particulars of the event as shall have been fixed and determined on the date on which the notice is given. The notice shall be given in each case not less than 14 days prior to such applicable record date.

7.9 Protection of Subscription Receipt Agent

The Subscription Receipt Agent:

(a)           shall not at any time be under any duty or responsibility to any Subscription Receiptholder to determine whether any facts exist which may require any adjustment contemplated by 7.2, or with respect to the nature or extent of any such adjustment when made or the method employed in making such adjustment;

(b)           shall not be accountable with respect to the validity or value (or the kind or amount) of any SR Shares or SR Warrants or other shares or other securities or property which may at any time be issued or delivered upon the exercise of the rights attaching to any Subscription Receipt;

(c)           shall not be responsible for any failure of the Corporation to issue, transfer or deliver SR Shares or SR Warrants or certificates representing SR Shares or SR Warrants or to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Article 7;


- 39 -

(d)           shall not incur any liability or responsibility whatsoever or be in any way responsible for the consequences of any breach on the part of the Corporation of any of the representations, warranties or covenants herein contained or of any acts of the agents of the Corporation; and

(e)           shall be entitled to act and rely upon the certificates of the Corporation or of the auditor of the Corporation and any other documents filed by the Corporation pursuant to Section 7.7.

SUBSCRIPTION RECEIPTS

OSISKO DEVELOPMENT CORP.

(a corporation existing under the federal laws of Canada)

THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT, for value received, [●] (the "holder") is the registered holder of the number of subscription receipts ("Subscription Receipts") specified above of Osisko Development Corp. (the "Corporation") and is thereby entitled, without payment of any additional consideration or further action, to be issued, at the Escrow Release Time (as defined in the Subscription Receipt Agreement hereinafter referred to) one common share of the Corporation (each a "SR Share") and one common share purchase warrant of the Corporation (each whole warrant, a "SR Warrant") in respect of each Subscription Receipt held. This Subscription Receipt Certificate represents Subscription Receipts of the Corporation issued under the provisions of a subscription receipt agreement (which agreement, together with all instruments supplemental or ancillary thereto, is herein referred to as the "Subscription Receipt Agreement") dated as of March 4, 2022, between the Corporation and TSX Trust Company (the "Subscription Receipt Agent"). Reference is hereby made for particulars of the rights of the holders of the Subscription Receipts, the Corporation and the Subscription Receipt Agent in respect thereof and of the terms and conditions upon which the Subscription Receipts are issued and held, all to the same effect as if the provisions of the Subscription Receipt Agreement were herein set forth in full, and to all of which the holder, by acceptance hereof, assents. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Subscription Receipt Certificate and the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement shall govern. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Subscription Receipt Certificate shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Subscription Receipt Agreement. The Corporation will furnish to the holder, on request, a copy of the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

The Subscription Receipts represented by this Subscription Receipt Certificate will be automatically converted into SR Shares and SR Warrants by the Subscription Receipt Agent at the Escrow Release Time for and on behalf of the holder upon satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions and the holder will be a holder of the SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable on the conversion of such Subscription Receipts without additional consideration or the taking of any further action by the holder. For greater certainty, the Subscription Receipts represented by this certificate may not be converted by the holder and may only be converted pursuant to the foregoing automatic conversion.

Pursuant to the Subscription Receipt Agreement, the Escrow Release Date is the date, or the Business Day following such date, on which the Subscription Receipt Agent receives the Escrow Release Notice in the form required under the Subscription Receipt Agreement, which notice will inform the Subscription Receipt Agent of the satisfaction of the Escrow Release Conditions, will advise the Subscription Receipt Agent of the conversion of the Subscription Receipts into SR Shares and SR Warrants and will instruct the Subscription Receipt Agent to pay the Escrowed Funds in accordance with the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

In the event that a Termination Event occurs and a Termination Notice is delivered to the Subscription Receipt Agent by the Corporation, all of the Subscription Receipts shall, without any action on the part of the holders thereof (including the surrender of Subscription Receipt Certificates), be cancelled by the Subscription Receipt Agent. In such event, the holder will be entitled to receive, and the Subscription Receipt Agent and the Corporation shall pay to the holders of the Subscription Receipts, the aggregate amount of US$3.50 per Subscription Receipt then held together with their pro rata share of the Subscription Receipt Interest earned on the Escrowed Proceeds (less any withholding tax required to be withheld in respect thereof), all as more particularly set out in the Subscription Receipt Agreement. The Corporation shall be liable for, and shall forthwith after the Termination Date deposit funds with the Subscription Receipt Agent in an amount equal to any shortfall between the amounts owing to Subscription Receiptholders and the amount of the Escrowed Funds. The Subscription Receipt Agent shall not be responsible for any such shortfall owing to the Subscription Receiptholders.


A-4

The holder of this Subscription Receipt is cautioned that in the event that the Subscription Receipts are deemed to be cancelled, a cheque will be mailed or delivered to the latest address of record of the registered holder.

Subject to the terms of the Subscription Receipt Agreement, on and after the date of conversion of the Subscription Receipts represented by this Subscription Receipt Certificate, the holder will have no rights hereunder except to the SR Shares and SR Warrants issued to such holder.

No SR Shares or SR Warrants will be issued pursuant to the conversion of any Subscription Receipt if the issue of such security would constitute a violation of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction.

The Subscription Receipt Agreement contains provisions making binding on all holders of Subscription Receipts outstanding thereunder resolutions passed at meetings of such holders held in accordance with such provisions and instruments in writing signed by holders of a specified majority of all outstanding Subscription Receipts.

The Subscription Receipts may be transferred in accordance with applicable securities laws and by the transferor and transferee duly completing and executing the transfer forms attached hereto, and surrendering this Subscription Receipt Certificate to the Subscription Receipt Agent at its principal office.

The Subscription Receipts and the Units, SR Shares and SR Warrants issuable upon deemed conversion of the Subscription Receipts and SR Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of SR Warrants have not been and will not be registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act") or the securities laws of any state of the United States and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the U.S. Securities Act and may be offered, sold, pledged, or otherwise transferred, directly or indirectly, only pursuant to a registration statement effective under the U.S. Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration thereunder.

The holding of this Subscription Receipt Certificate will not constitute the holder a shareholder of the Corporation or entitle such holder to any right or interest in respect thereof except as otherwise provided in the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

This Subscription Receipt Certificate will not be valid for any purpose until it has been Authenticated by or on behalf of the Subscription Receipt Agent for the relevant time under the Subscription Receipt Agreement.

Time is of the essence hereof. This Subscription Receipt Certificate is governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.
